Sidenote but holy shit the last act of Sonic Adventure 2 is really really dark for a Sonic game?

The reveal is that the millitary murdered a child and one of her relatives went insane with grief and decided that all humanity should die

That's BLEAK for a series that's about a wise cracking blue hedgehog and his fluffy talking animal pals fighting robots and collecting magic gems that didn't even allow anything stronger than the word "Damn" to be used in the dialogue
